Cleaning & Care
Daily Cleaning
Dandy recommends cleaning your appliance daily before and after every use. Immediately after removal, use warm water (not to exceed 45°C/113°F) and soap to remove remaining saliva and debris from the device.
Cleaning Agents
For periodic debris removal and maintenance, you can use any mild over-the-counter cleaning agents
designed for oral devices. If needed, use a soft bristle brush to clean the inside of your appliance for debris removal. Some validated cleaning agents include Dawn dish soap, Polident, Efferdent, 3% peroxide solution, 15% bleach solution, and mouthwash.

- Dispose of the cleaning solution after every use. Rinse the appliance well prior to use.
- DO NOT SOAK the appliance in water hotter than 45°C/113°F due to the risk of warping the device.
